I always go under...i think out of fear of running out. Is that insane or what?:bigsmile:0

I go over every once and a while because I'm doing 1,200 calories a day. I know that if I go over 100 I will still be alright. I don't usually plan on it or see it as a safety net, but I don't beat myself up over it.0

As long as its below TDEE you are fine.
Its hard to say since I eat what my fitbit suggest.0 -
I don't go by net calories but I go over my calories maybe once or twice a week0

^ the reason I love this chic! I go over probably 2-3xs a week, I also do 'calories owed' if I went over by too much and I'm worried about it. This week I've went over way too much but my bday was last friday so I gave myself a bit of a break.0 -
I have mine set to TDEE so... never lol0

Once in awhile. Like once or twice a month. It's all in moderation.0

I'm similar. I'm doing 1,240 calories a day so it's really easy to go over. I'd say a few times a week. I'm still losing weight so I'm not too concerned.0 -
once a week when i have my cheat meal usually. very rarely do i do it twice.0

I share your fear. I have gone over once is 95 days, and then I changed my goal from 1.5/week to 1/week to give myself the room I needed. I've never gone over my 1/week goal calories..0 -
thank you all for your replies - very helpful - and keeping me motivated! I can tend to be an all or nothing type dieter - not helpful - so I am trying a new approach. Seems to be working...
Thanks!0
